Using Statewide SOL Test Results to Guide Instruction
Statewide results on the spring 2012 SOL mathematics tests were analyzed to determine specific content that may have challenged students. The presentations below provide examples of SOL content identified by this analysis. Sample items are provided to further clarify the skills and knowledge included. However, these items are not SOL test items and are not meant to mimic questions used on the SOL tests. Instead, they are intended to provide mathematics educators with further insight into the concepts that challenged students statewide.
